My lovely gal, Daenerys, seems to have a kink in her spine. My boyfriend and I first noticed it when she was very young. At first he thought it was just something she had eaten causing her to be misshapen. It's definitely more pronounced now that she's grown. I don't have very good pictures of it, but I'll post what I do have below. It doesn't seem to bother her at all, whether she's being handled or not. We're hoping it's just a birth defect, that it won't worsen, and that it's not genetic. I was just wondering if any of you think we should bring her to a vet to be checked out, or if I should just keep checking for signs of it worsening or bugging her? We don't have a reptile vet nearby but if it is going to start causing her pain the drive would be worth it. Thanks!
You can see it here well (younger pic):
